Always used ADI2225 and 145gn eldx.....deadly combo

Or the 140g Nosler BT and 2217

Good harvester of reds and heavy stags

We a trialing barnes 129lrx and superformance at the moment

I use re 19 and 140 grain tipped gameking. Excellent results.

Use 2209 with 150gr sst goes ok

Use 2209 with 130 Barnes and 2213sc with 145 Hornady, does all I need.

Interesting. How many animals did you shoot with the 145 eldx? I have heard mixed reports about their performance.

Couldn't say exactly but plenty from 4 yards to about 420yards all died within 10m of being hit, most bang flops, no complaints from me about performance.
This was a mix of Fallow and reds.

Each to their own. I’ve used the 145 grain eldx and I didn’t like them at all, especially close up. Poor weight retention in general, though to some people that’s not a bad thing.

Their very inconsistent my issues were penciling up close

Yeah, I will post a few loads tomorrow. I find the 270wsm a nice balance of having a lot of oomph and reasonable recoil. They are inherently accurate.
